80-85% chance at HBS/GSB?

Apparently, there is a profile that will give you an 80-90% chance at schools like HBS/GSB/Wharton:

750+ GMAT 3.8 GPA Ivy League undergraduate degree Work experience at GS or McK Extracurricular includes alumni involvement and very active participation in an ethnic identity organization

This was put together by Sandy Kreisberg for the Handicapping Your MBA Odds series

Anyone able to match this?
